And yet another article about the failure of the iPhone 3GS announcement and AT&T:
http://www.pcworld.com/article/166366/wwdc_attack_of_the_apple_fans.html But, what cracks me up is that the iPhone 3GS will still sell. If everyone is so unhappy about it the announcements yesterday, the Apple community should just ban together and boycott the new phone, and then spread the word to all the new buyers to not bother with the new iPhone. Will it happen? Hell no! If you read all the tech articles, then you can see a trend since the announcement that everyone is whining, but no one will do anything about it. AT&T and Apple will still make a hell of a lot of money. I can tell you that I will not be buying the new iPhone 3GS. I plan on waiting for a while to see what happens with Verizon, if they will get a iPhone next year. Then, I will wait some more to see what their package will be. Because all mobile phone providers are thieves, it's possible Verizon will be just as bad though.
